I thought I'd post these questions here rather than on the comment wall so it's easier to find, especially since other people might wonder too. I'm still not sure which letters I should be posting under. If someone's name after immigration started with a different letter than the original patronymic name, do you want me to post the information under both letters? What about members of the same family who immigrated together, but at least some of the children used a patronymic name or one based on it (but were listed with their father's patronymic name in immigration records)? Two listings? Do you want all family members listed in the same post? I have a LOT of Swedish family members; my paternal grandmother was 3/4 Swedish, and two of my great-great-grandparents and two of my great-great-great-grandparents all came over separately (one of my great-great-great-grandparents came with her parents and two of her siblings). Four of my great-great-grandfather's siblings came over separately from him (I think all at different times), and so did the children of one of them (they preceded her) and some of the children of another brother who remained in Sweden. I also suspect that my great-great-grandmother's sister may have married her cousin, but am not sure; do I list the parents of the possible cousin in the same post as known relatives with the same surname?

I have a LOT of Swedish ancestors! I do know about many of them, but thought about posting the information I had on them anyway because in some cases I would like even more information, plus maybe it would help someone else if we happen to be related. And there are some that I definitely need more information on. My father's mother was 3/4 Swedish, so between her ancestors and other members of their families, that would be a LOT of Swedes to post in this folder!
